Baling hay....another setback..just part of farming

Watch on YouTube

What happens here

The video shows the tractor and baler in action, picking up hay from the windrows. The speaker describes how the baler's meters indicate the distribution of hay inside the baling chamber (left/right balance) and when the bale is full. Once full, the string is wrapped around the bale, and the finished bale is ejected from the back of the baler. The baler leaves behind tracks where hay was picked up, highlighting areas missed due to previous raking issues.

Goal: The baler is shown operating in the field, picking up hay, forming bales, and ejecting them. The speaker explains the baler's indicators for hay distribution and bale completion.
